), an international full-service contract manufacturer of IT, consumer and consumer electronics products, said today it has been awarded a contract to develop the next-generation SafetyNet(TM) RadioBridge(TM).

The contract from Aegis Assessments Inc. (OTC BB: AGSI AGSI Association for Global Strategic Information

), of Scottsdale, Ariz., calls for CirTran to add features for enhanced performance in the SafetyNet RadioBridge, which interconnects incompatible radios, bridging them to provide radio interoperability at emergency sites in just minutes.

) places a very high priority on communications interoperability for first responders," said Hawatmeh.

Project SAFECOM, the federal umbrella program managed by the DHS, oversees initiatives and projects pertaining to public safety communications and interoperability for approximately 50,000 public safety agencies in the United States United States, officially United States of America, republic (2005 est. pop. 295,734,000), 3,539,227 sq mi (9,166,598 sq km), North America.

CirTran Chosen "to Ensure Quality and Continuity"

"CirTran was selected to redevelop and manufacture the SafetyNet RadioBridge for a variety of reasons," said Richard Reincke, president of Aegis Assessments.

"We wanted to ensure quality and continuity in the process, from design to manufacture, and then to high-volume manufacturing," Reincke said. "CirTran will redesign the product and begin building units. As manufacturing needs grow, CirTran offers a unique blend of quality and quantity, including the ability to build at its Salt Lake City facility or control a higher volume output through its CirTran-Asia subsidiary in China."

), has estimated that patchwork interoperability (the kind of system sold by Aegis and JPS) could be accomplished nationwide for approximately $350 million. Patchworking devices, Reincke said, allow public safety agencies to use existing radio systems to temporarily integrate communications with other agencies without incurring the time and cost of building new or additional infrastructure.

Other proposed solutions to radio interoperability, Reincke said, include standards-based shared systems. Companies promoting standards-based shared systems include Motorola Inc. (NYSE:MOT), the market leader in two-way radio services for public safety, transportation, utility and government in the United States. Estimates for implementation of a national emergency radio system run as high as $18 billion.
